| In
every market, whether you are selling Cars, Tupper-Ware, or 3D Video
Cards, there is always a place for the high end. These types of
products have all the bells and whistles and are tweaked, buffed and
tuned for ultimate performance. This review is about the "Cadillac"
of Voodoo3 Cards. This is no luxury sedan though. This is more like
an "STS" Model, trimmed up with all the toys and a power
plant under the hood that will bring out the Teenager in you. |

We don't need to
get into too much detail on what a Voodoo3 card can do for your
machine. If you want more detail on the
bits and bytes of Voodoo3, look here at our V3-3000 Review. However,
what you see in the above image is a combination of multimedia
technologies highly integrated into the original Voodoo3 design and
then 3dfx added the turbo-charger. This board sports a 183 MHz.
Voodoo3 Core, Higher Speed SDRAM Memory at 5.5ns., TV and FM Tuners
and an Image/Video Capture engine.
Lastly, 3dfx
decided to make life easy on you. They have designed something
called the AVPod and a Cable Assembly that allows the user to
converge all of the technologies on their desktop. Gone are the days
of crawling down behind your computer to hook up that Video or Audio
Cable. The Pod sits on your desk just begging for connectivity. Hey
baby... want to see my pod? :-)
